Smart machines are systems or devices that use machine to machine (M2M) technology, which allow them to make choices or solve problems without human intervention. Increasing investments by various organizations to improve operational productivity and efficiency is expected to fuel the “smart machines market” demand.

Machining tools and systems have undergone significant increase in recent period. Increasing technological advancement coupled with research and development actions has forced to growth of smart machines market. Smart machines are systems or devices that use machine to machine (M2M) technology, which allow them to make choices or solve problems without human intervention. These systems hold the capability of performing cyclic tasks at high accuracy and high speeds. Smart machines run autonomously and help correct and prevent abundant processing errors occurred by varying conditions in the raw material or wear and tear of the mechanical components and drift of thermal working point. These devices can offer status updates to a high level control device through trade of data with another automation devices.

Additionally, outfitted with an extensive sensor network, smart machines are competent of holding information regarding their environment, machine situation and an array of processes, thereby enhancing the quality and the uptime. Smart machines study through application-specific algorithms and can enhance their performance over time. Technological advancement is anticipated to be the key aspect driving the smart machines market over the forecast period. Additionally, favorable government policies are estimated to boost the market growth. Increasing investments by various organizations to improve operational productivity and efficiency is expected to fuel the market demand. Further, growing need to eradicate human errors and significance of automation by organizations is expected to drive the market demand over the forecast period. However, possible usage of machines instead of human labor is likely to create issues regarding unemployment, which is expected to hinder the market growth over the next five years.
